Solid Flooring: All wood flooring, regardless of width or length that is one piece of wood from top to bottom is considered solid flooring.

Step 2 – Job-Site Finished or Factory Finished

You should next take a look at whether your prefer a finish that is applied on the job-site, or a Veradale WA 99037 flooring product that is finished at the factory.

Job-Site Finish

A job-site finish is one that is applied at the place of installation. The floor is sanded, and finished. You will not be able to walk on the floor after final sanding until 12 hours after final finishing.

A job-site finished Veradale WA 99037 floor does however result in a smooth floor that has been handcrafted in place in your home.

Prefinished

A prefinished floor is one on which the finish is applied at the factory. Most (but not all) laminated products are prefinished, and some solid products are available prefinished. Prefinished flooring eliminates the dust and noise factors (you will still get some noise), however your subfloor needs to be perfectly level Veradale WA 99037 to achieve the best results.
